Back N Forth is a collaborative storytelling game where 2–6 players take turns creating a story together.

Hey everyone, A new Back N Forth test build is available. This update focuses on the online multiplayer story system. What was updated: players can now create online story rooms, join rooms with a room code, write together in real time, browse active and completed stories, read a story before joining, return to rooms through My Rooms, and Game Masters can manage, end, or delete rooms. I also fixed scrolling so long stories are easier to read and the Join Story button should stay reachable. Please test creating a room, joining from another device, submitting story entries, the writing lock system, ending a story, browsing active and completed stories, reading stories before joining, returning to rooms in My Rooms, and deleting rooms as the Game Master. Please also check if anything feels confusing, if buttons are hard to reach, if the keyboard blocks anything, if long stories scroll correctly, or if the app crashes/freezes. If you find a bug, send me what device you used, what you were doing, what happened, and a screenshot or screen recording if possible. Thank you for testing Back N Forth.
